Discrete-time modeling and control of double dual boost converters with implicit current ripple cancellation over a wide operating range

This article introduces discrete-time controllers for double dual boost converters, suitable for renewable energy applications. The proposed schemes are based on a current ripple mitigation technique, which enables an unconstrained input-to-output voltage converter gain. This is in contrast with classical interleaved topology implementations, where duty cycles are restricted (e.g., to 50%). A discrete-time small-signal controller is proposed for those applications that require nominal specifications. This control strategy is based on a novel linear difference system approach, whereas gain tuning is performed via numerical computation of linear matrix inequalities. In addition, a discrete-time large-signal controller is proposed for those applications that require trajectory tracking. The proposed controllers, their stability, performance, and ripple cancellation properties are validated via experimental results.

Abstract

This article introduces discrete-time controllers for double dual boost converters, suitable for renewable energy applications. The proposed schemes are based on a current ripple mitigation technique, which enables an unconstrained input-to-output voltage converter gain. This is in contrast with classical interleaved topology implementations, where duty cycles are restricted (e.g., to 50%). A discrete-time small-signal controller is proposed for those applications that require nominal specifications. This control strategy is based on a novel linear difference system approach, whereas gain tuning is performed via numerical computation of linear matrix inequalities. In addition, a discrete-time large-signal controller is proposed for those applications that require trajectory tracking. The proposed controllers, their stability, performance, and ripple cancellation properties are validated via experimental results.
